-Subject: [PATCH] Fix Makefile.am altivec logic
-
-Besides SPE (FSL e500v? cores) there are other powerpc processors
-that don't support altivec instructions so only enable them when it's
-100% sure that the target has it.

-Subject: [PATCH] src/libFACL/stream_decoder.c : Fail safely to avoid a heap overflow.
-
-A file provided by the reporters caused the stream decoder to write to
-un-allocated heap space resulting in a segfault. The solution is to
-error out (by returning false from read_residual_partitioned_rice_())
-instead of trying to continue to decode.
